Halogens in volcanic systems
TL;DR: A review of recent advances in this field, including experimental and theoretical investigations of halogen behaviour in volcanic and related magmatic systems, including halogen abundances in the mantle and magmas on Earth, the effects of halogens on phase equilibria and melt viscosities, their partitioning between melt and fluid phase(s) upon decompression, cooling and crystallisation of magmas in the Earth's crust; and their final atmospheric release as volcanic gases are discussed in this article.
Journal Article
Compositions of anhydrous and hydrous melts coexisting with plagioclase, augite, and olivine or low-Ca pyroxene from 1 atm to 8 kbar; application to the Aleutian volcanic center of Atka

Journal ArticleDOI
Sulfur concentration at sulfide saturation (SCSS) in magmatic silicate melts
TL;DR: In this article, the sulfur concentration in silicate melts at sulfide saturation (SCSS) was experimentally investigated in a temperature range from 1150 to 1450 ǫ c and a pressure range from 500 MPa to 1 GPa in a piston-cylinder apparatus.
Journal ArticleDOI
An introduction to the application of X-ray microtomography to the three-dimensional study of igneous rocks
Don R. Baker,Lucia Mancini,Margherita Polacci,Michael D. Higgins,Guilherme A. R. Gualda,Reghan J. Hill,Mark L. Rivers +6 more
TL;DR: X-ray microtomography has been applied in biomedical research and clinical settings for decades, but few geoscientists realize its value and potential as discussed by the authors, and this contribution provides an introduction to the principles and techniques of X-ray microscopy to the study of igneous rock textures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nonlinearity and multifractality of climate change in the past 420,000 years
TL;DR: In this article, the long-range correlation properties of temperature proxy records of four ice cores from Antarctica and Greenland were studied and it was shown that these time series are nonlinear for time scales of 1-100 kyr as expressed by temporal long-term correlations of magnitudes of temperature increments and by a broad multifractal spectrum.
